Time Team

Series 13 | Episode 3 | Rubble at the Mill, Manchester

Series 13

It's only a little over two centuries ago that Richard Arkwright built his first factory for cotton manufacturing in what is now the centre of the city of Manchester.

In doing so, he turned the city into the power house and driving force behind the new cotton industry.

Built in 1780, today what is left of it lies buried beneath a car park. Time Team has three days to locate and investigate one of the most important historic sites in Britain.

  1. I wish that all the series of Time Team could be put on DVD. I would love to see, episode3 of series13, it's called Rubble at Mill. Filmed in Manchester about Arkwrights Mill. My ancesters were there at that time but I only saw the episode once. There would be a huge market for these DVDs so could someone somewhere arrange it. Thankyou, Judi
